Well we certainly talked some inside baseball with Amanda this month! I (Rick) took liberties with editing on this. It’ll make for a more amusing listen if you don’t have deep inside knowledge of music retail. If you are in music retail it’s not so disguised that you maybe can’t figure out the companies discussed. Y’know, MEGACORP!? I also took the opportunity to add some spooky sounds since this is episode that is most current for Halloween. Heck, you may even figure out your own side story to go along with those sounds.

Oh yeah, so we talked about music retail business, record shows, the various stores Amanda has worked at from Slipped Disc to Needle & Groove, and Generation to her job as a representative at All Media Supply and her work putting on record shows with Vinyl Revolution. We also talk about what we’re listening to, what Amanda is listening to and what Amanda grew up listening to including her musical background.
Jack aka The//Moon joined us on the podcast this month. We talk about a variety of topics including the best green room experience he had with Cold Snap, collaborating with Wicca Phase Springs Eternal Springs Eternal, and watching Lost more times than anyone I know (and probably anyone ever).
On this month’s podcast we talk to Hughie and David of CT punk band Zipper! We talk about the music we’re listening to and dive into what happened to get Zipper going.

We talk about what bands they’re playing and releasing stuff with that they’re stoked on. We talk about the way they got into music and punk in the first place and generally dive into playing music in bands. We actually stay pretty on topic in this episode only veering a couple times to talk about a couple shows that happened in the old store’s basement (Mind Eraser and Greg Ginn – separate shows).
We are excited and honored to have a pre-order for the new Mountain Movers LP coming out on August 13th via Trouble In Mind Records. We’ll have a limited amount of purple copies with a bonus numbered print poster (12″x12″) of original Dan Greene art work (of the Mountain Movers) exclusive to Redscroll!
We’ll also have black copies of the LP and cassettes – without the extra print – available in the store on the release date, August 13th.
Our guest this month is recent transplant to Connecticut, Antoni Maiovvi (an alias and also the preferred name by which he is referred). We talk about his many projects under this name and various others on the label he co-runs, Giallo Discos, and many others.
We talk about his many moves that eventually brought him here. And Josh stands up for compact discs! And of course, we talk about music we’re listening to and many subjects along the way.
